I'm traveling to China soon and planning to do quite a bit of shopping. I'm looking for a reliable freight forwarder that offers DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping from China to Qatar.

I'm expecting to ship around 20 kg or more, mostly clothes, shoes, and other personal items. I'm planning to bring any food or snacks in my checked luggage instead.

I've contacted a few freight forwarders on Alibaba, but I'm honestly not sure how to verify if they're legitimate, especially since some of their reviews look repetitive.

Has anyone here tried shipping from China to Qatar?

I'd really appreciate recommendations or experiences, especially regarding:

• Reliable shipping companies or freight forwarders
• Shipping costs for around 20 kg (and which currency you paid in)
• Whether customs duties, taxes, and delivery are included
• How long delivery usually takes
• Any issues with customs or unexpected charges

I'm based in Al Rayyan, Qatar, and would prefer door-to-door delivery.

Thank you so much!
